Half-Kitsune
Has the series had a Two Girls and a Guy friendship trio yet?

The One with Knowledge of Things
My first thought was Leon, Aerith and Yuffie.
I assure you, I'm a completely trustworthy person.

Way back when, I used to ship Pence and Olette, because hey, let's give heavy guys some love too, eh?

She would definitely give the "He asked for no pickles!" line.

I had to Google what that meant (I thought it was a SpongeBob line at first), and I can see Olette doing that while Pence is like "Please stop"

I really hope Sora's inner darkness gets addressed Steven Universe: Future style.
"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."
Oh, bother.
...It already has been addressed. Sora's Heartless is the Big Bad in coded.

Are you sure? I thought that was Data Sora.
"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."
Oh, bother.
Doesn’t matter. The point is that we have already had a “hero’s dark side turns into a monster” plot.
Heck, in a way Vanitas is also this. He outright says he is the brother and shadow cast by Ventus and Sora.

Not as angry as the name would suggest.
Let me put it this way: I think such a plot thread deserves better than for Coded, of all things, to be the final word on it.
(I don’t really recall it saying anything interesting on the subject anyway.)
Oh God! Natural light!
That was also a plot-point in DDD. The Norts were trying to get Sora possessed by the darkness (Darkness?) sleeping in his Heart. But Riku had actually dove into Sora's Heart instead of that of the Sleeping Worlds and he beat it up as a de-facto Dream Eater.

Re:coded's philosophical depths are really slept on because of its small role in the grand story.

I'm not a fan of the data aspect in the series. It feels like an easy out if you need the real thing or a convenient way to solve a plot issue. It reminds me of the data device in Ace Attorney Investigations that can be used to recreate the crime scene and modify the investigation to almost magic levels of power.
Plus it feels like it is way too easy to create existence from it, like the data trophy Orb and munny pouch from KHII being treated as a physical thing. Need a missing item in the real world? Just create a digital version of it in the database and viola problem solved.

I guess I did not give Sora enough credit. I was expecting something like with Future but I was wrong. Coded does need to be explored,
"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."
I rather liked Re:coded. The Datascape areas were nice~
(I blame the battle themes and kinda wish the Datascape returns one day, even if just the system sector-like places.)
Sora's darkness isn't much
like the whole twist is Data Sora's Heartless is just a mere shadow using the system bugs to make itself super strong. -a twisted take on Sora's ability to forge bonds with others-
like are you wanting something deep and complex?
Oh, bother.
Besides, Vanitas already kind of serves that role for both Ventus and Sora.
Disgusted, but not surprised
And are we sure there's no one else still living rent free in Sora's heart? Should turn his heart upside down and shake it to see if anything else comes out .
-Witty line-
The way KH treats data makes sense to me. If a thing exists, it has a heart. Data worlds are artificial, but they're real. You can go there. The people there exist. They live and die entirely real, entirely fabricated lives. And if they forge connections, that's as much evidence of a heart as anything from any other world.
Oh, bother.
This is after all a setting where literal Nobodies are people.
Disgusted, but not surprised
Formerly G.G.
Everything has a heart, even the heartless.
"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."
I still laugh at Axel’s real name.
I'll teach you a lesson about just how cruel the world can be. That's my job, as an adult.
